Episode Twenty: Emperor Of the North (1973)

Having firmly established the rule of thumb that any movie with more than one title is tempting fate in the quality department, we forge ahead anyway with Emperor Of the North, or as it was originally titled Emperor Of the North Pole (which, by the way, is the correct title for this film…dropping the word “Pole” renders the title pretty meaningless). Much of this film takes place during a train journey undertaken by Lee Marvin, Ernest Borgnine and Keith Carradine. But is it a journey worth taking? Have a listen and see what we think. We also enjoy liquid libations from the city of Asheville and we make a list of comedies we feel you should probably see.
